This blog started off by focussing on NZ's smaller 3rd level airlines, past and present. It has evolved to trying to present some record of NZ's domestic airline operations and some of the larger charter operators, interesting NZ international airliner movements and photos I have taken around the country.

King Air ZK-SNM joins Air Wanganui

Air Wanganui, who operate medical transfers and charter flights from Wanganui across NZ, have been operating King Air C90 ZK-MKG alongside Piper PA31T Mojave ZK-WTH. The King Air ZK-MKG is on a planned period of maintenance while the Mojave is nearing completion of rework following a landing incident in May this year.

To allow for ZK-MKG's removal from service, the operator has leased NZ's second King Air C90 ZK-SNM from nearby Air Manawatu for the duration as from early October. It is seen here arriving at Wellington on a medical transfer flight on 27Oct.
